How we score

The editorial take

Whiskey Gulch backs its name with 150+ whiskeys and Flip's Flight Club, an 11-flight structure that lets you compare Scotch, rye, Japanese, Irish, and bourbon side by side. The drinks menu splits into Signature Drinks and Coffee Cocktails, with The Gulch Smoky Old Fashion and Espresso Martini among the named pours. Wine gets its own two-tier treatment through Flight Risk #101 house pours and a Specialty Wines section. The spirits list is the reason to come; the rest of the program is competent support.

What should I order?
Start with a flight from Flip's Flight Club, such as the Whistle Pig Rye Flight or the Japanese Whiskey Flight, to compare across the whiskey list. If you want a single pour, Macallan Double Cask 12 yr. Or Redbreast 12 yr. Are named on the menu.
Who will enjoy this place?
Whiskey drinkers who want to compare Scotch, rye, Japanese, Irish, and bourbon in one sitting, and guests who prefer a structured flight over a single pour.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?
The combination of 150+ whiskeys and Flip's Flight Club, an 11-flight program that turns a deep bottle list into a guided comparison across Scotch, rye, Japanese, Irish, and bourbon.
